Dark Sky – Rainkist – 12 Vinyl

Dark Sky present their smoothest track yet with “Rainkist” for Monkeytown. The sheer genius of the bass line makes this a gem of a modern soul ballad and its melodic elegance gleams through the track like shining chrome. Hazy falsetto vocals make the song drip sweat and sex. The Trevino remix adds sci-fi synths and electro snares and claps and turns “Rainkist” into a captivating slow-burner, perfect for long build-ups. Marcel Dettman’s slowly-evolving remix pitches the harmonies of the vocals and pairs them with a pumping sub-bass, extending the suspense-packed intro into a pumping techno track. Hotly-tipped to spearhead the year-end polls for best remixes in 2014.
